Take off the hose from the AMM to the turbo. Stick a couple fingers in there, oh, with the engine Off! and try to move the shaft, both side to side and in and out. Yeah it's sexy. But if there's any more than a TINY bit of movement, the turbo bearings may be bad. If so, the impeller may be hitting the housing.
You can rebuild the turbo, or you can change it, used ones/rebuilt ones are available.
